The Quinceanera father-daughter dance is one of the most emotional parts of a traditional Quince celebration . It symbolizes the birthday girl ’ s first dance with her father as a young woman . In the case where the father is not available , an older male can serve as a father-like figure and usually shares this moment with the Quinceanera .

During the Quinceanera waltz , the father takes the time to express words of encouragement to his daughter as she takes her first steps into womanhood . Following the dance , the chambelan then approaches the father while on the dance floor and asks for permission to dance with the celebrated .
